229-game Hyundai A-League veteran confirms NPL move

Former Hyundai A-League stalwart Manny Muscat has confirmed his return to National Premier Leagues Victoria side Green Gully.

Having enjoyed an illustrious 229-game career in the Hyundai A-League with Wellington Phoenix and Melbourne City FC, Muscat returns to Green Gully, where he first pulled on the green and white shirt back in 2007.

The 33-year-old has also made seven appearances for Malta and declared his excitement to return to Green Gully for the remainder of the 2018 NPL season.

“It’s pretty nice knowing you can always come back to a family club, and one I’ve always been associated with.

“Even from a distance, I always liked to keep track of the goings-on, I’ve got a lot friends here and I’m very happy to see out my last years of football here at Gully.

“Based on my first session back, I noticed there are a lot of young players here, hopefully with my experience and knowledge I’ve gained, that can help rub off on the team and we can make a real good push from now to the end of the season.

“Being in Victorian football before, it was very competitive then and it hasn’t changed now. We’re in a good position, and there’s many games ahead this year to make this season a success.”
